(Yes I just did that)
Addie, Ben, and I quickly made our way into the castle grounds where there was already a large crowd, "Yes, traitors walk among us. Yes, traitors plot to end us. Traitors will have you believe that their cause is noble. They wear many masks, they may look like your friends. They may even look like your most loyal servants." Logan said as a guard dragged Swift up the steps in front of everyone. Oh no. "This is the face of a traitor. Major Swift, a respected member of the army and sworn servant of the kingdom." Logan continued. No no no no no.
"He has plotted against us all. He had been apprehended attempting to turn loyal soldiers against us. Thus charged with espionage, treason, and conspiracy. There are still others among us darkening our land with their betrayal. We will hunt these traitors down, where ever they may be, and they shall suffer the same fate as Major Swift." Logan said angrily. Shit shit shit.
It was at that moment everything froze. Literally. The rain, the people, even the air felt like it froze in place. I took this as my chance and weaved through the crowd of people up to the steps where Swift was. I pulled him down the steps, leaving an illusion in his place, then moved him out of the courtyard before unfreezing him.
He looked around for a moment, bewildered, before turning to me, "What...?" He trailed, "Get out of here. Don't let them see you." I said and he nodded before running off. Only when I couldn't see him anymore did I return where I was standing and started everything again, but this time the Swift standing up there wasn't real.
"The fate of all enemies to the crown!" Logan yelled as the soldier shot Swift. Ben tried to run up there but I stopped him before he could move more than a couple feet, "He needs to be stopped no matter what it takes." He said as he turned to us, "Come on, let's go tell the others." He said and we nodded before leaving the castle.
~Time skip cause I'm tired~
Everyone turned to Addie and I when we walked in, "Ben told us what happened. Swift was a good friend. He died like a true soldier." Walter said, "A true soldier? Let's not pretend there was anything noble about the way he died. He was tortured, humiliated, and murdered." Ben said, "And he didn't give Logan anything or we'd be dead now. I call that noble." Walter stated.
"It was just a matter of time before Logan did something like this. Before he decided to hunt us down. We have to fight back." Paige said, "We're still not ready though. We need more allies and thanks to Swift's efforts we know just where to look." Walter said, "Before he was executed the Major still managed to send us a message." Ben told us.
"A soldier still loyal to the old guard brought it to me. A great risk to his life." Walter said, "What does it say?" I asked him, "Well this is Swiftie we're talking about so it's rather straight forward 'You will find allies in Aurora'." Ben said, "I still don't understand how anyone there could help us. Aurora is a dead land, there's nothing there." Paige said, "Or at least that's what we've been told. It's still the only lead we have anyway." Walter said, "Can we get on with the plan? I have an overwhelming urge to shoot someone." Ben said in annoyance as his grip on his gun tightened a little bit.
"First thing, we'll need a ship. You and Ben will get hold of one while Paige and I make sure the rest of the fleet doesn't follow." Walter explained, "We'll need to go via the back alleys. They'll be crawling with soldiers." Paige warned, "Not a problem, I know my way around the place. I'll meet you at the back of the sewers. We're gonna show Logan just what traitors can do." Ben said as he looked at Addie, "Go on. My men are putting together the materials we'll need." Paige said.
"Wait what about Dylan? What will she do?" Addie asked, "Dylan has to stay here with Paige while we're gone. It's safer that way." Walter said, "How is it safer that way? We protect each other. We have been since we were children." Addie said, "Addie I'm sorry, but she has to stay behind. Sparrow said that if anything were to happen to you and Logan then Dylan would have to take over. And as of right now if something happens to you while we're out there we need Dylan here." Walter said.
